Front bumper will most likely fit, the earlier one does, but the rear bumper defiantly won't fit as the cabriolet bumper has shorter sides than the estate. I saw the comment on your thread about pressence and S2 bumpers one member posted.

If you want to go down the S2 look route, i am with my 2.6 avant, you can buy an earlier cabriolet front bumper with the projected spoiler as it will fit but you will have to find either a S2 Avant rear bumper or a Saloon competition rear bumper as it's the same. Saloon S2 rear bumper fits but never came to this country.

Yes, that is kind of what I'm aiming for, thanks. What years of cab would be 'earlier'?

This is the bumper you want,

There's 2 earlier types the first type when it first hit the showrooms then this type which ran from 1994 model year ,i think, up till 1997.

I buy form him sometimes so i would offer £200 - £250 and see if he accepts he usually does.
